Got the Concept Luke and Concept R2/3PO from a friend who went to Celebration today. Looks good. She also got me a coin and 4 holographic cards. That was nice. No TAC 3 this morning in my area of the San Gabriel Valley. I really just want the Concept Chewbacca.

Just a heads up for the few SSGers from the San Gabriel area: Pico Rivera and Commerce Targets already had TAC 3. Only Vaders and a mashed up Jawa and Luke left among both. Baldwin Park Target must have stocked Saga Legends late yesterday. So did Rosemead because I found the two clone troopers(AOTC and ROTS). Only got the AOTC one, to open.

Quite a bit of Vintage in the area stores. Got two snowtroopers from Baldwin Park Wal-mart(unfortunately, the only ones). Pico Rivera Target had 3 snowtroopers. I got one, left other two. Well, actually, did a half-assed stash job on one, but it's strictly a short term, one day stash, so PM me if you plan on hauling your butt over there within a day and you don't live too far from there.

What the ****!

Hello everyone. I just received a rather interesting email from our friends at Hasbro:
Dear Customer:
Recently you purchased a "Star Wars Ralph McQuarrie Signature Series Concept
Luke Skywalker Figure with Collector Coin" using the Hasbro Friends & Family
promotion code. As advertised, this item was not eligible for use with that
promotion.
To remedy this situation, we will remove the discount from this item, apply any
additional shipping charges that may apply, and ship your order on June 11,
2007.
If this remedy is not acceptable please call our customer service center at
1-800-408-0052 by June 9, 2007 to cancel your order. If we do not hear from
you, we will assume that you have agreed to the changes noted. We regret any
inconvenience this may have caused.
Please do not reply back to this e-mail message as this e-mail address is used
for outbound messages only.
Now, when I purchased this I did not see anything about the discount not being available. Anyone else have some light to shed on this. Cheers.

I don't remember being told there were restrictions. That's really bad customer service- if their computer allowed it, they shouldn't override it.

RS had a lot of chatter about that yesterday, but as of then no one had seemed to get the email from Hasbro. Apparently it was reported at JediDefender first. Someone from that forum was somewhere where a Hasbro rep announced this. It's bad form though on Hasbro's part. I'm not sure I'll keep my order. $39 for two figures is a lot worse than $24. Unfortunately I do want at least one to open, and 20+ for one figure isn't that much better. Saw 7 Snowtroopers today. Got 3, 2 at Wal-Mart. I think Target's price is causing these to hang out just a little bit longer at some of the area Targets.

Got you covered. What do you think of the recent announcement of Shayera/Ray/Green Lantern 3-Pack?

Thanks, i knew i could count on you guys! though i'm thinking of actually attending...

i have a mixed bag of emotions that it's Shayera/Ray as i've been waiting for it to come out since late last year. it should be part of the regular releases and yet because of some oversight by Mattel, it's a con exclusive??? on the other hand, i really want the Shayera (and am even working on a custom of it.)

i finally got around to opening those free packs of the pocketmodel TCG from CIV. they look like they could be fun but actually they suck...as i was putting one of the TIE Fighters together, the tabs to attach the panels broke off.
